[Alec]

Is he any good? I honestly don't know.

 

[pennywisealfie]

Who really knows? He could be anything, he was only young when he got cancer so he could be really good, but either way still a great move by the Broncos, will at the very least, keep Ben happy.

 

[Allo]

Coming off a knee recon, so didn't play much (if any) last year. Did well at the Eels U20's beforehand I think it was before the cancer

 

[broncos4life]

Whether he plays a minute of nrl for us or not, great move by the broncos. At the very least should help being feel comfortable, could also bring out marmins best footy too

 

[jarro65]

Certainly a shrewd signing for what appears a very minimal contract figure.

Can he play 5/8 ? :rolleyes:

 

[Sproj]

The rumour has always been Marmin could become better than Ben. Obviously he's had a lot of setbacks.

 

[Sproj]

I've always wondered how Marmin would go as a 9 incidentally.

 

[Danoz Direct]

Marmin has been playing five-eight in intrust super cup.

 

[Splinter]

This could be a very good signing. He still needs time but could well be a late bloomer because of the setbacks he has had. Look for him to make an impact in 2015

 

[theshed]

Yeah, apparently Marmin is faster than Ben and hopefully he can put on a bit of size during his time with us and get a run on the sting or in the halves.

Where is the sting? :smile:
Griffin's specialty, putting size on and this player needs it

 

[Unbreakable]

Maybe we will have Barba at Five-Eighth after all, just not Ben.

 

[Unbreakable]

I think we should give him a crack in the Halves in the pre-season, tbh.

 

[1910]

Barba, played some good games at the backend of the year for Tweed, his game against Norths and Bears were strong. He plays left hand side and played half. He played a lot off the bench too.

Very instinctive like Ben, took some intercepts this year and ran away. He is more like Aaron than Ben though.

Deal was done pretty quickly last week, he couldn't see a way at the Titans and wants to be near Ben too. Ben spent plenty of time on the Coast this year at Tweed games watching him.

 

[jarro65]

Sounds like we were lucky Ben didn't decide to go to the Titans to be close to Marmin :clap2:

Yeah, the whole Ben Barba thing just fell into Gee's lap lol :P

1910 Do you think we might see Marmin in halves with B Hunt ?
